=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

LD50 LC50 Mixture:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EYE: SOLID/DUST MAY CAUSE IRRIT OR
    CORNEAL INJURY DUE TO MECH ACTION. SKIN: ESSNTLY NONIRRIT TO SKIN.
    MECH INJURY ONLY. SKIN ABSORPTION IS UNLIKELY DUE TO PHYSICAL
    PROPERTIES. INGEST: SINGLE DOSE ORAL  TOX IS BELIEVED TO BE VERY
    LOW. NO HAZS ANTIC. INHAL: DURING EXPANSION SM AMTS OF PENTANE ARE
    RELSD. (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NOT RELEVANT
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: EXCESSIVE EXPOS TO PENTANE MAY CAUSE
    IRRIT OF UPPER RESP TRACT. EXCESSIVE EXPOS TO PENTANE MAY CAUSE
    CNS, ANESTHETIC OR NARCOTIC EFTS & MAY INCR SENSITIVITY TO
    EPINEPHRINE & INCR MYOCARDIAL  IRRITABILITY (IRREGULAR HEARTBEATS).
    INCONFINED OR POORLY VENTDS AREAS, PENTANE VAPS CAN READILY ACCUM &
    CAN (SUPDAT)
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INGEST: CALL MD IMMEDIATELY . EYES: FLUSH EYES W/PLENTY OF
    WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN; MECHANICAL EFTS ONLY. SKIN: WASH OFF IN
    FLOWING WATER OR SHOWER. INHAL: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT
    BREATHIN G GIVE MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESUSCITATION. IFBREATHING IS
    DIFFICULT GIVE OXYGEN. CALL MD. NOTE TO MD: EXPOSURE MAY INCREASE
    "MYOCARDIAL IRRITABILITY." DO NOT ADMINISTER SYMPATHOMIMETIC DRUGS
    UNLESS (ING 7)

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point:510F,266C
Extinguishing Media:WATER FOG, DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
    EQUIPMENT . APPLY LARGE VOLUME OF WATER DIRECTLY ON FLAME OR
    BURNING SURFACE.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:SWEEP UP AND REUSE IF UNCONTAMINATED OR
    DISPOSE OF AS GIVEN IN WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:DURING EXPANSION & CURING, CHECK FOR
    BLOWING AGENT TLV LIMITS ON A REGULAR BASIS. MAINTAIN ADEQUATE
    VENTILATION TO REMAIN BELOW TLV LIMITS.
Other Precautions:THIS MATL CONTAINS A FLAMMABLE BLOWING AGENT W/LOWER
    FLAMMABLE LIMIT OF 1.5% IN AIR & UPPER FLAMMABLE LIMIT OF 7.8% IN
    AIR. WHEN EXPANDABLE POLYSTYRENE IS STORED IN CLOSED CNTNRS, A
    FLAMMABLE ATMOSHPE RE W/IN THE CNTNR CAN DEVELOP. (ING 9)

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS SHOULD BE MAINTAINED BELOW
    THE EXPOSURE GUIDELINES. WHEN RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IS REQUIRED
    FOR CERTAIN OPERATIONS, USE A NIOSH APPROVED AIR-PURIFYING
    RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:GOOD GENERAL VENT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR MOST CONDITIONS.
    LOCAL EXHAUST VENT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR SOME OPERATIONS.
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES .
Eye Protection:ANSI APPRVD CHEM WORKERS GOGGLES .
Other Protective Equipment:ANSI APPROVED EYE WASH & DELUGE SHOWER . NO
    PRECAUTION OTHER THAN CLEAN-BODY COVERING CLOTHING SHOULD BE
    NEEDED.
Work Hygienic Practices:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Supplemental Safety and Health
EFTS OF OVEREXP: CAUSE UNCON & DEATH DUE TO DISPLACEMENT OF OXYGEN
    (SIMPLE ASPHYXIA). REPRESENTATIVE INDUS HYGIENE SURVEYS OF
    OPERATIONS WHERE SUGGESTED HNDLG PRECS ARE FOLLOWED SHOW LEVELS TO
    BE BELO W EXPOS GUIDELINES & LEVELS WHICH CAUSEACUTE EFTS. SYSTEMIC
    (OTHER TARGET ORGAN) EFTS: RPTD EXCESSIVE EXPOS (ING 4)
